Peggy is the cutie who climbs into ridiculous costumes, spouts off-teat lines aid ri'ks life and limb for laughs. "We've only been on this ir four weeks" the brunette said, "and Krnie's drea nel in s;me of the darndes stunts I've ever seel. So far, I've worn a blonde fright wigunderwator. ii Indiai squaw outfit, none 'sailing' through the air on a magic car pet and other weird stums. "Kvcn on normal nights I have to change costumes six o" seven times to give c!ue3 to the panel." Normally. Peggy is a singer, but as Kovac's girl Friday on ABC-TV's "Take A Cood Look." she has hasl only one opportunity to exercise her pipes. Show li Fixed "That was last week." she grimaced, "and I had to sing Jeanne With The Light Brown Hair' off-key. H was followe-1 by ai off-stase gunshot. That's how bad it was." lJeggy cheerfully admits the show is fixed for laughs. "It's r.ot so much a panel show as it is a comedy program," she explained. "The idea is to make the panel look as stupid as pos sible, which Ernie is very good at doing. "Not long ago his wife, Edie Adams, was a panelist, ami Ernie told her, 'You're great with the pots and pans at home, but as a panelist you're nothing. You eight to get out of show busi ness'." There's nothing easy about get ling laughs when you're a pretty but I'eggy, who's married to comedian Dick Martin of the Rowan and Martin comedy learn, is learning last. "The more attractive a girl is, the harder it is to be funny. The scripts and sketches have to be as humorous as possible." she said. "I never know what Ernie will have me doing from week to week. Playing Comedy Thrilling "In a way It's thrilling for me to play comedy. Before I joined the show i was forced to rely on my voice and face. "I've always been a secret nut. but I've had to keep my sense of humor hidden. Now I can be as cray as ! want. I realize, of course, that it takes years to learn timing and other elements of come'Jy. But I'm going to keep trying." The first -eal laugh Peggy ever collected occurred a few years back while on a date with rra.iK Sinatra. When asked who his companion was, Sinatra intro duced her to one and all as Kz zurd Charles. "I'm still trying to live that down," Peggy sighed. 3 Marriage Licenses Issued At Courthouse Three marriage licenses have been issued by the county re corder's office.

James C. Hagerty 'has been fol lowing a similar theme in his relations .with embassies along the route. Surprise For Reporters Hagerty has been insisting that each presidential procession also include reuresentatives of the local press far up in the motor cade. This may seem a routine ges ture back in the United States but it represents an amazing depart ure to government officials ; and reporters in Asia: " In most instances local news men have been somewhat shocked and then mightily pleased to- be accorded a high place in the presidential motor cade when they are not allowed to do anything remotely similar when moving around with-their own chief executive. With each new town the Presi dent's trip becomes more labori ous for those in his party. Fatigue is much more evident among the members of his: staff than in the President hirnself. This is natural sines he still is getting his eight hours of sleep a night. The people who work for him get up much earlier than he does; they go to bed much Jater at night. The problems of existence be come quite painful at times. The most frequent complaint is lack of sleep. Hagerty asked mournfully the other morning in Ankara, Turkey. "I wonder how long a human being can go without any sleep at all?" Hagerty had a good point. The night Eisenhower was in Turkey the communique on his conversations with President Celal Bayar was issued a few minutes befcre 2 a.m. It was 3 o'clock before Hagerty got to bed and he had to be up again by 6 a.m. to dress and get to the quarters where Ike was staying in time for departure ceremonies. Most members of the Eisen hower travel party virtually col lapsed the first night in Karachi because they were sj weary from sleepless stops in Home and Ankara. As soon as the President turned in that night at the residence of Pakistan President Ayub Khan, the Ike staff rae?d to bed. NEWS CHUCKLES United Press International GRIM AND BEAR IT DALLAS, Tex.
